A Spring Birthday

I printed a topper and matching backing paper from the House Mouse triple cd. I had to do this just by accessing the files directly from the cd as I haven't got Parallels installed on my Mac yet. Must get the hubby to do that for me... I made the base card using a sheet of glossy light blue card which has been in my stash for years. I then added a Spring edge die cut (Tattered Lace) and the backing paper. I covered the join between the two using two different blue ribbons. The topper has been mounted on an angle using foam pads. I've finished off with a couple of fancy corners on the topper. These are actually from the Spellbinder Frosty Forms Christmas dies. I've added a pearl to the centre of each.

Oh Helen I love this image...perfectly coloured!! I almost used it for this challenge!! What a stunning card...beautifully done!! Thank you for sharing with us at House Mouse and Friends!! Good luck!Take care,Beth

What a beautiful card, Helen. The colors you've chosen are perfect for the style - such a fantastic example of a House Mouse design. Thank you for joining us this week for our Through The Craft Room Door challenge.
